Jim Stagnitta - Director
Jim Stagnitta is former the head coach of the Rutgers University
men's lacrosse team.
In 2003, Stagnitta led Rutgers to the biggest turnaround in
Division I, going 10-5 and gaining a bid to the NCAA Tournament
for the first time since 1991. He was named the ECAC and National
Coach of the Year.
The 2004 season proved just as impressive, finishing 8-6 overall,
including a thrilling victory over 4th ranked Syracuse. Stagnitta's
team was awarded an at-large berth into the NCAA Tournament for
the second straight year.
Prior to Rutgers, Stagnitta guided Washington & Lee to 12
consecutive winning seasons, six conference championships and
five appearances in the NCAA Tournament. His teams never lost
more than five contests in his 12 seasons as head coach.
Stagnitta attended college at the University of Pennsylvania,
where he was a player and a coach. As a player, he was a three-year
letter winner as a starting defenseman. He led the Quakers to
two Ivy League Championships, including the school's first-ever
league title in 1983. Stagnitta later returned to Penn as the
assistant coach where he helped the Quakers to consecutive NCAA
Tournament berths, including a memorable Final Four run in 1988,
when the underdog Quakers fell in the last minute to eventual
national champion Syracuse. Penn won the 1988 Ivy championship
and was 20-9 in his two seasons as an assistant coach.
